Overview
The Bambu Lab hotend features a unique all-in-one design that combines the heatsink, throat, heater block, and nozzle into a single unit. With this design, Bambu Lab hotends can heat up much faster than traditional hotends and avoid the risk of filament oozing or leaking at the nozzle and heat break interface.
Bambu Lab offers hotends in two configurations: a single hotend with nozzle and a complete hotend assembly. The complete hotend assembly includes: [1] hotend with nozzle, [2] a cooling fan, [3] a ceramic heater, [4] a thermistor, [5] a silicone sock. It comes pre-assembled and ready to use in your Bambu Lab 3D printer. If you need to swap your nozzle, you can either replace the hotend with nozzle on your original complete hotend assembly or replace the whole complete hotend assembly.
*Please confirm your printer model before making a purchase, as the connectors may differ between the X1 Series version and the P1P version.

* Filaments containing carbon fiber, glass fiber, metal, or other inorganic particles are prone to cause clogging with a 0.2 mm nozzle.
* When printing with carbon fiber or glass fiber-contained filaments from other brands, using a 0.6 mm nozzle is more recommended to minimize the risk of clogging.
* A hardened steel nozzle is more abrasion-resistant to print with carbon fiber or glass fiber-contained filaments.In the Box
